Regardless of what you may have heard in the past, one thing is certain – being a drifter is not an easy task. It can be a pretty dangerous hobby, and you might feel lonely along the way as well. So, do you know why drifters do what they do? They do it because they love enjoy experiencing new things in life, as well as because they enjoy meeting new people and exploring new places. People who don’t like to travel that much usually never get to do these things. However, before you actually decide to become a drifter, you need to be aware of the fact that it takes a lot of both mental and physical preparation.

You need to know the basic rules of the place that you are going to visit. Different places have different rules, and because of that, knowing what rules apply to a certain place can be very helpful. For example, if you ever happen to visit some sort of a big metropolitan city, setting up some sort of temporary shelter might not be a good idea. This is because many laws are against the idea of sleeping outdoors. What this means is that if you decide to do it anyway, you might end up having a lot of trouble with the police.

Try To Find a Good Shelter
As you can see, sleeping outside might not always be an option. Because of that, what you need to do is try to find a good (legal) shelter. Many charitable organizations would be more than happy to offer you a place to spend the night at low cost, or even for free.

Set Up a Tent
If you can’t find a good shelter, you can always set up a tent. However, only do it if the law allows you to do it – either that or set up a tent in a secluded area. If you don’t already have a tent, you should be able to get one online or at your local camping store.

Carry Everything in Your Backpack
Try to fill your backpack with as much stuff as you can. Of course, this doesn’t mean that you need to carry too much stuff, because that is never a good idea. Just make sure to use a durable backpack, because you are going to need it.

When it comes to traveling, it is one of the most positive things that you can do in life, which is exactly why so many people all over the world do it. And while traveling is such a good thing, there is still a whole lot of things that could go wrong. For example, damaged or lost luggage can make your whole trip memorable for all the wrong reasons. Although the airport technology has improved a lot over the last couple of years, human error still exists, which means that it is not impossible for your bag to be misplaced for a certain amount of time. But there is no reason to worry, because there are some things that you can do to prevent things like these from happening to you.

One thing that you can do to prevent something like this from happening to you is remove old airline tags from your bag. Although this is very easy to do, that doesn’t mean that it is not important. It is actually one of the most important things that you need to do when traveling and something the owners of Performance Chiropractic + Sports Rehab learned the hard way… This is because tags from the flights that you have taken before can confuse the airport workers, which is something that you should never do. Simply peel them off. It’s not that difficult, is it?

Carry Important Items in Your Hands
Any items that you can’t imagine your life without should go either in your hands or in your carry-on bag. This way, if you ever happen to lose your luggage, you will still have the most important items on you. This includes things such as your wallet and phone.

Mark Your Luggage
Marking your luggage is something that you should always do. You can use your bags built-in tag, or you can buy one from your local store. Write down your name, address, and phone number.

Make a List
Make a list of all the things that you are going to take with you. If your luggage ever gets lost, your airline company will probably want some sort of proof, in which case you can show them this list. Make sure to keep this list in your pocket at all times.

It is pretty much safe to say that I don’t even have to tell you anything about Croatia, since you probably already know a lot of stuff, don’t you? However, I am still going to say a couple of words about this beautiful country, just in case! Croatia is one of the most interesting countries in Europe, and there are many different reasons why. Not only is Croatia a beautiful country, but it is a pretty diverse one as well.

Wondering what kind of diversity I’m talking about here? Well, I am going to try to explain it in the most simple, as well as the shortest way possible. You probably already know that Croatia is mostly known for its summer season, right? Right! Well, when I said that Croatia is a pretty diverse country, what I meant was that even though it is mostly known for its summer season, you don’t really have to wait for summer in order to have fun, and the reason why is because there is something fun to do in this beautiful country all-year-long. But seriously though, there are so many fun things that you can do in this beautiful city called Zagreb. And now, here are some of those things!

Upper Town

Exploring the upper town is probably the most interesting, as well as one of the most fun things that you can do in Zagreb. The upper town and Kaptol are two of the oldest parts of Zagreb. This area is also one of the most romantic parts of Zagreb. If you enjoy exploring small museums, secret passages, and art galleries, you are going to love the Upper town.

Parks and Forests

If you ever happen to be in Zagreb, you should definitely check out its parks and forests. Maksimir is the oldest public park in Zagreb, and it is the one that you should definitely check out during your visit. However, Zagreb is home to many more interesting parks (such as Zelengaj and Orlovac) as well.

Skydiving

Are you one of those people who love adrenaline? If you are, then Zagreb is the place to be! You should definitely give skydiving in Zagreb a try.

When it comes to all the things that can ruin a good vacation, the list is pretty long. And out of all the things on that list, bad weather is always around the top. Excessive heat can make exploring new places seem impossible, snow storms can completely destroy your transportation plans, and sudden cold snaps can be just as frustrating as high temperatures. Although all three of these things can be quite annoying, heavy rain is on a completely different level. It can leave both you and your luggage soaked for hours.

While there is pretty much nothing you can do to prevent bad weather when you travel, be prepared for it will allow you to make better travel plans. With that said, having some sort of weather app installed on your phone can be very useful sometimes. The following are three weather apps that will help make your next trip a bit more enjoyable! Keep in mind that all three of these apps are available for iOS and Android users.

AccuWeather

AccuWeather is a weather app that provides users with plenty of weather-related information in a very simple format that doesn’t make them scratch their heads. The hourly weather forecast is presented in both text and graph format, and it just looks nice. There is a feature that allows you to see what the weather feels like outside in real-time, which can really come in handy, especially if you are traveling in particularly cold destinations.

1Weather

This app doesn’t do too much, but the things that it does do, it does pretty well. It shows you the current, daily, and weekly weather forecast for your current location. If you would like to see what the current weather situation is like in other parts of the planet, 1Weather allows you to do just that. Information is presented in such a simple format that you will enjoy using this app.

Weather Bug

Weather Bug is the most sophisticated weather app on this list. It has all the features that a good weather app needs to have, and much more. While some users might find this app to be quite overwhelming, Weather Bug does a great job with focusing on the things that you actually need to see. Another thing that makes this weather app so useful is the fact that you can track multiple locations at once, which can be very useful if you love to travel.
